The JGS STOCKIST dishcloth is a high-utility blend of 70% wood pulp cellulose and 30% cotton. This specific ratio creates a microscopic porous structure that helps the cloth retain up to 20 times its weight in fluid. The diamond-embossed texture on the surface is designed to provide mechanical agitation for scrubbing, making it effective for removing dried spills without damaging polished or non-stick surfaces.
This 10-pack is built to withstand up to 50 machine wash cycles. A key benefit of this material is rapid desiccation; the cloth dries about four times faster than a standard sponge. This quick-drying feature helps inhibit the growth of common odor-causing bacteria, keeping the kitchen environment fresher. Once the cloth reaches the end of its usefulness, the material is biodegradable.
Specifications indicate that the cloth becomes rigid when dry, requiring it to be saturated with water before it becomes malleable for cleaning. To maintain the maximum absorption capacity, it is important to avoid using fabric softeners, as they can leave a hydrophobic coating on the natural fibers.
For a similar absorbent solution with a focus on organic materials, the Wild & Stone organic cotton cloth offers a plastic-free honeycomb weave.
